There are websites that allows you post YouTube urls to download the videos. here are browser plug-ins like in Firefox for example have YT video download capabilities. There are downloadable software also. But I'm not sure about the effect on your computer after such downloads. Mine got viruses (e.g. iLivid), malware and perhaps rootkits. I'm not sure if they indeed come from those software or free sites. So I'm now being more careful this time. I even rebooted my computer. Not sure if I want to do it again.

Simply search the extensions for your favourite browser. There are dozens of downloaders around there

I think Ilivid is the best. just search for ilivid on your best search engine and install it on your pc. Its very easy to use.

You can use some software that can download youtube vidoes for you. Get it from filehippo . com or download . com.

I use Free YouTube Downloader, it gives me an option of downloading and converting as well.

I don't like ilivid. It gets downloaded in your computer from certain websites even if you don't want. Isn't iLivid a virus program? If I'm not mistaken, I get websites popping up in my browser without my approval.

YouTube down loader is the best option for desktop and laptop.Tube Mate for mobile download is very useful for YouTube Dowanload

if you are using Chrome, you can download an extension called real downloader and install real player on your computer. This way you can download any streaming video directly on your computer in Real format.

Thanks to everyone that tried to help. It seems that there's nothing new under the sun so I'm closing the thread.
